I've added "What is Life?" by Schrodinger to the stacks. It is the origin of the concept of "negative entropy" in that lifeforms expel excess entropy from their system (and other lifeforms gobble it up as energy for natural processes, and expel/excrete it for others to do the same...)
At least. that is what I understand of it so far. The work is a series based on his lecture material in a course with the central question of "How can the events in space and time which take place within the spatial boundary of a living organism be accounted for by physics and chemistry?" The concept of Negative Entropy (like all concepts) has evolved over time, but my "skim" of it shows it is interesting, and I often feel modern texts miss important thoughts brought up in older texts, so here is a nice start on the subject. :) |
I think I've melted again.
|
D: Sorry to have melted you, Tam. Look at the comic, and de-melt, pwease...
|
the sky trolled me this morning. It looked like it was going to rain, so I rolled up all of percy-car's windows, and now I see blue skies.
|
Lawtan, I wasn't you. It's the weather here.
Den, LOL! Senaiji's expression says it all. *hug* |
Is Percy the name of your car?
|
Sounds like it to me... O.O
Also, CAAAAAKE!!! *Noms on the pastry meant to protect me from evil and grant me luck, also known as birthday cake* *Shares cake with everyone* |
Yeah, Percy's my car. Is short for Perceptor, who is one of my favorite Transformers. :3
|
Hey, Den. What outfit is that?
*pokes birthday cake, takes off icing, and then goes and gets peaches and cream to eat with it* |
It's the Jahael set, minus the hair. I found a combo of hairstyles that best replicates my hair when it's down, too. Turns out that the Seabreeze and Touseled Bangs work well together. :3
*went clothes shopping yesterday, got a new blouse and a skirt. Will have to go back on Tuesday for a couple of items she had to put back on the racks* |
Hi all! Just popping in before my infusion!

:( Sorry, Faux...
...Was I the only one who couldn't access Trisphee yesterday? |
They said Trisphee was offline yesterday. It was a mechanical problem, so to speak. *read in the news*
|
Ahh...okay! I was going to read some of the material in the Library yesterday, so was somewhat surprised. xD
|
I'm not sure where it's from, other than it was an event item at some point. I got it in a donation from another Trisphee user...
|
Yeah. It was a full site burp.
Ohhhhhh. Well, LOL It's a pretty event outfit. |
I want to get the full set of August DIs... I've calculated, and I think I can get 'em with either this next paycheck or the one after.
|
Well, when I get them, I usually get a few extra Runes as well...
|
Trust Den to wanna be a bunny. *joke* *too brainless suddenly to think of something really good to say*
|
And a wolf! :D
|
AROOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Watch out for them loup garou.
|
Jackals, anyone? <.<
|
*cackles* Lawtan rocks.
|
What is that derpy little grey thing? Poor little guy looks like he's seen some shit.
|
The bird? I dunno... and yes, Tam, must watch out for Loup Garou! :D
|
WE HAVE A LIBRARY GHOST!!! :D
*Hugs Crystallyn* *Also hugs Autobot and Tam* |
*Uses religious book to get the ghost to go away* so, how is everyone?
|
:( I like ghosties... (Crystallyn is a Trisphee "Ghost"...as is Sadrain...don't know if there are others...)
I was very depressed yesterday...as in momentary dip into my past morbidity. But... In a World of Stone... |
Opps sorry ghost. Depressed as in sad or depressed as in depression? If the later, do you need any help or someone to talk to, if so just ask and I'll try.
|
Yay, hugs! *gives Lawtan and the little grey toad both hugs*
Eyes in the night, living shadow. Aroooooooo. ...I don't THINK I've had too much sugar this morning. |
lol you sure about that, Tam? *grin*
|
Well, I do suffer from clinical depression, as has been noted elsewhere. I talked to a friend last night.
Summation of current state: Good ideas, but a lack of belief that I can (or deserve) to follow through with them. The assumption that "I'm not good enough to draw folktales, rewrite their legends in such a way to generate interest without being a complete <Disney's Pocahontas> about it." In addition to that, the knowledge that whatever I do, someone will hate me for it. Combine with just a very bad day yesterday (and the stuff with the recent news...from Robin Williams to the government fucking around again...and mix that with dealing with a high lack of being able to understand where I fit into the world (leading to a sense of "I don't belong here...I'm broken...I should just disappear from everyone's lives...") Yes, I am well aware that these feelings are immature and illogical, but I unfortunately have many days like that. How a more "public" person does it, I do not know. |
Yeah I'm there to. I'm depressed again and I've been fighting it off and on for 10 years now. My depression added to how society treats me for being Autistic (and now Muslim), along with Gaza, ISIS, and one of my friends Dad being tortured means life has got really really sucky for me right now. To make it worse my biggest support is moving away. I found the best thing that helps me fight against feeling broken is to rant and bleed it out a bit, it only works for a little while but it helps along with SSRI's and my sister and friends support and I can almost function. What helps you?
|
Ranting helps a little...I usually try to find people feeling similar about certain things, and read/listen to what others try to reassure them with. Otherwise, fetal position and rocking until I am out of it. I used to be more violent against myself, but as part of the "one foot in front of the other" thing, I have mostly gotten out of the full-out self destructive part of my life. SSRI's would not be the best for me (as I have trouble with Serotonin in the first place - it would likely further mess it up).
Karate helped (Alternatives: Yoga, high-energy dance, Juijitsu, etc.), as did brushing (Wilbarger Brushing helped with stress, but I have to remember to do it...which is hard with stress) *Hugs fellow Autsie* (High Functioning Autistic) |
I don't really like functioning labels, it seems weird to be measured against NT's expectations and expect it to cover all categories at all times for example one could say I'm "low functioning" when I loose my words but "high functioning" when they learn I got into college ect.
|
That is very true. Either way, *hugs*
Oh, and before I forget, comedy and humor help also. |
I like deep pressure hugs and lying under heavy objects when I'm really stressed out. Do you also have sensory issues?
|
Very much so, yes. Along with some OCD, legal blindness (can't do anything visual without very thick glasses) and an assortment of other things. (Migraines, for example)
|
I'm a -9.75 in both eyes lol. I find that stress is a big trigger for me.
